HiWATER: Dataset of the spectral reflectance in the middle of Heihe River Basin- A Big Earth Data Platform for Three Poles

This dataset contains the spectra of white cloth and black cloth obtained in the simultaneous time during the airborn remote sensing which supports the airboren data preprocessing as CASI, SASI and TASI , and the spetra of the typical targets in the middle reaches of the Heihe River Basin.

Instruments: SVC-HR1024 from IRSA, ASD Field Spec 3 from CEODE, Reference board

Measurement method: the spectra radiance of the targets are vertically measured by the SVC or ASD; before and after the target, the spectra radiance of the reference board is measured as the reference.

This dataset contains the spectra recorded by the SVC-HR1024 ( in the format of .sig which can be opened by the SVC-HR1024 software or by the notepad ) and the ASD (in the format of .asd), the observation log (in the format of word or excel), and the photos of the measured targets.

Observation time:

15-6-2012, the spectra of typical targets in the EC matrix using SVC

16-6-2012, the spectra of typical targets in the wetland by SVC

29-6-2012, the spectra of typical vegetation and soil in Daman site and Gobi site by ASD 29-6-2012, the spectra of white cloth and black cloth by ASD which is simultaneous with the airborne CASI data
